An add-on acoustical type storm window can make a lot of difference. You have to put a lot of money into a replacement window to get the same performance.
Absolutely. But if VolvoHeretic truly has windows that large and that thin, a storm window won't stop their sympathetic vibration. Not to mention the safety factor - building codes in many areas wouldn't allow this. A large wind load, or an angry bird, would take these right out, and potential woe to anyone nearby.
Kind of like having drum heads or passive radiators in your walls.
Aunty Em - Maybe a "gobo"? One of those modular partitions they use for office cubicles? Some are specifically designed for reducing sound transmission - and if you look around you might find a free one. Recover it with the fabric of choice, or hang art on it, leave it next to the window and slide it in front of it when you want to rock. Might help.
